History:

San Miguel Arcángel was founded by 15 Volga German families in the Adolfo Alsina Partido of Buenos Aires Province on 29 September 1903. The neighboring area of Esteban Agustín Gascón was officially founded when the railroad station was established there on 15 April 1907 and the families living in the surrounding rural areas there often combined the two names into San Miguel de Gazcón. Volga German families continued to move into the area from other locations in Argentina.
